Following the success of EGY STITCH&TEX in Egypt, the SAUDI STITCH is part of the Africa-Middle East cycle. It significantly promotes economic development in Saudi Arabia and enhances its textile industry.

The Saudi Stitch & Tex Expo invited 418 exhibitors from various countries, attracting 26,000 visitors. For those looking to enter the Saudi market, the Saudi Stitch & Tex Expo is an ideal gateway.

With a limited local production scale in Saudi Arabia, there is a significant gap in technology level and product quality compared to imported products. Textiles from Vietnam, China, India, Korea, Japan, and the United States are fiercely competing in the Saudi market. According to a market survey conducted by the Chinese trade agency in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia's textile imports have been increasing in recent years, especially for fabrics used in traditional men's and women's clothing, with demand for high-end textiles expanding and low-end fabric imports declining. The annual import value of cotton, wool, and blended natural fiber products exceeds $68 million.

90% of Saudi's clothing textiles come from China. With a retail fashion market focus, the Saudi clothing textile industry is one of the fastest-growing markets in the Arab region. The main sales areas are concentrated in the three major cities of Riyadh, Jeddah, and Dammam. Saudi Arabia is considered one of the most dynamic and attractive clothing textile markets in the world. The Saudi Stitch & Tex Expo is the best trade platform for Chinese textile machinery and fabric companies to enter Middle Eastern countries.
